Alaska - A Pedophile's Paradise
43 Alaskan Natives filed a lawsuit against the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits), claiming a widespread conspiracy to dump pedophile priests in small Alaskan towns and shelter them from exposure.

Attorney Ken Roosa announced the lawsuit and said, as of today, he knows of 345 cases of molestation, only two of them against non-natives.

The Jesuits, he said, sent known pedophiles to isolated Alaskan villages—many of them only accessible by boat or plane—to let them abuse children with impunity. "It was a pedophile's paradise," Roosa said. "We are going to shine some light on a dark and dirty corner of the Jesuit order."

2. Sending the bad priests to the hinterland is standard operating procedure, sadly.

3. Apparently these guys take Jesus literally when he said:
Suffer the little children to come unto me.

This is some sorry shit. PROSECUTE. PROSECUTE. PROSECUTE. Especially the higher-ups who enable this abuse.

5. it's kind of cool that the Palin has turned Alaska...
...into the worst state. All the other states got to move up a notch and feel better about themselves.

6. Whoever set this policy should go bye bye.
For a good long time too. I just cannot get my head around the fact that someone can look a known pedophile in the face and think, "I'll just send him on to the next place." Rome flew one priest back and refused to turn him over to the PROPER authorities, didn't they?

Sick.
